One of my favorite things about Nutrisystem is that they offer several tools to help you along your journey. With every membership you receive access to the online community, which includes forums & support, and has many other resources as well. Below are a few of my favorites: The Recipe … [Read more...]

Raise your hand if you weigh yourself on a regular basis. Now raise your hand if you actually like doing that! Now, I won’t claim to like the number that flashes back at me- but I will tell you that I love that it now flashes at me from a beautiful blue LED display!
&I may not be a fan of … [Read more...]

Week 9 was a moment I had been waiting on for weeks. After weeks of the Nutrisystem plan with no movement on the scale and a .5 lb. loss in Week 8, I finally lost 1.5 lbs. in Week 9! I was even more excited because the loss brought my weight down to the next digit in the ten’s place! {I don’t want … [Read more...]

I’m a week behind so I’ll be playing catch up this week! During my 8th week on Nutrisystem, I finally got the scale to budge & lost… 1/2 a pound! It may not seem like much but I’ve been working hard & haven’t seen the scale move in weeks so even .5 is a victory to me. It was the same … [Read more...]

Another week on Nutrisystem, another weigh-in to report!
I actually did a pretty good job this week sticking to the plan, but my scale disagrees. I’m stuck at the same number- again. *Insert dramatic sigh here*
That said, I bought some new clothes this week {as mine are getting too big}, and they … [Read more...]

I can’t believe it’s already time for another Nutrisystem weigh-in! Time has been going super fast lately.
This week I maintained last week’s weight. I am actually okay with that this week, because it was a rough week. I’ve been exhausted every single day {which means in bed by 8:30pm- yes, that … [Read more...]

So now that I’ve been on Nutrisystem for a little over a month, I’ve gotten to sample a wide variety of the foods that they offer. I have to say that I was surprised many times by how incredibly good some of the food is. I mean- it’s “diet food”, and it’s all either shelf-stable or frozen. As … [Read more...]

So I'm officially one month in on my Nutrisystem plan & I've definitely seen a lot of benefits already:
-I am eating healthier- both my Nutrisystem foods & lots of vegetables, which I avoided before. I've always loved fruit but hated veggies, but I'm learning new ways to enjoy them since I … [Read more...]

About Me!

Hi, I'm Shell! I'm a 20-something Las Vegas mom to two boys- eight year old Shane and three year old Zac. They are the love and light of my life! ♥ {A close second is their daddy, Justin- my hubby & high school sweetheart!}

I'm a former sorority girl who was born with glitter in her veins. I love to make things look pretty & know my way around the kitchen.

It hasn't always been this way, though- while I've always dreamt of being a wife and mom, I wasn't quite prepared. {Is anybody?!} I've spent the last eight years teaching myself the ropes using trial & error {mostly error}.

From cooking & cleaning to diapers & plastic sword fights, I'm trying to figure it all out to the best of my ability- without losing too much of my sanity in the process!
